Clinical Excellence

Three Allegheny Health Network hospitals were recognized for clinical excellence at the seventh annual Fine Awards for Teamwork Excellence in Health Care.

Sponsored by the Jewish Healthcare Foundation and The Fine Foundation, the Fine Awards for Teamwork Excellence in Health Care encourages essential teamwork in developing systems, tools, and programs that better serve patients and families by spotlighting those who have made a difference.

The 2014 awards recognize successful efforts by healthcare teams to elevate the level of care in one or both of two key quality measures, infection control and pain management. A panel of 15 distinguished healthcare professionals from across the United States selected the winners who not only improve care, but share their best practices beyond their own unit or department.

"We join the panel of independent judges who selected finalists and winners in applauding Allegheny Health Network, Allegheny Valley Hospital, Saint Vincent Hospital, and Forbes Hospital for their commitment to perfecting patient care," said Karen Wolk Feinstein, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Jewish Healthcare Foundation.
